Manufacturer : SHURE
Super Analog Stylus (SAS) Profile Tip
The tip of the is carefully chosen from single-crystal natural diamonds. The laser-cut diamond closely resembles that of the cutting stylus used on a cutting lathe to produce the acetate master disks used in vinyl production. This allows the SAS tip to reach into the deepest recesses of the record groove in order to retrieve details which were previously inaccessible to other stylus profiles. Due to its wide contact area with the groove wall, the SAS can reproduce a more expansive bandwidth of information with higher fidelity.
Cantilever
is one of the most suitable materials for cantilevers. its density is low, Young’s modulus is large, and the speed of sound propagation is approximately 2.6 times faster than that of aluminum. Due to the characteristics above, boron cantilever can more precisely trace the information contained in the record grooves than aluminum cantilever.
There is NO interchangeability between VN5MR and VN5xMR. Please confirm your cartridge / stylus number and select suitable stylus.

    This is my second stylus of this type from JICO and they’ve had this one for some time…and clearly they’ve perfected their art. I know it’s cliche to say this, but going with the SAS stylus is truly putting the V15-V on steroids. It’s difficult to image how much better the ruby or diamond cantilevers would be versus the boron…but I suspect the boron is more impervious to (accidental) rough handling. I’m listening to a Quadraphonic copy of Steely Dan’s Can’t Buy A Thrill and there’s a tambourine in the left channel that sounds like it’s hanging in a space all its own…each instrument individualized yet part of a whole. WOW.

    Even better than original, dinamics and detail at maximum level

    I like the V15 sound. I bought a Jico SAS
    WOW night and day with the original one! more detail sound stage more precision . At this price, it is a no brainer !

    Many thanks Jico !
